Shane O’Mara wore mascara
Theatre Royal, Castlemaine
He surrendered to Lindy’s eye-poking pencil
Belly-aching all the way
Ziggy Stardust, Marc Bolan
No-one really cared
Flamboyant being, feathers and a beard
Then someone said that someone said that someone said
We’re all non-binary in a way
A tall tree stood outside the band room
It was flowering, in full bloom
It cast a spell upon the ‘Evil’ one
He stared motionless upon his stool
He looked like Ernest Hemingway
With a touch Orson Welles
Was it the fragrance from the flowers?
Or the sweetness of their curdling smell?
Then someone said that someone said that someone said
We’re all non-binary in a way
Then someone said that someone said that someone said
We’re all non-binary in a way
We laughed until we cried with Lindy
Our golden queen, her glistening drum kit
Towering above us all on her riser
Who will stay and who will quit?
Her humble servants, her worker bees, LindyBand
There’s no need to doubt or question
Simply understand
Then someone said that someone said that someone said
We’re all non-binary in a way
Then someone said that someone said that someone said
We’re all non-binary in a way
Then someone said that someone said that someone said
We’re all non-binary in a way

Wait For Me

Wait for me, wait for me
‘Neath the pale moonlight
Upon the shore, my pea green boat
Leaves at morning light
We can drift across the waves
And hear the ocean’s roar
And if the waves come take us both
We’ll lay entwined upon the ocean’s floor
Wait for me, wait for me
I’ll be there on time
The engine will depart at dawn
Leaves from platform 9
The train line leads across vast lands
In three days we’ll be home
And if the train should leave its tracks
We’ll never be alone
No, no, no, no, no, no
Wait for me (wait for me)
Wait for me (wait for me)
Wait for me
Wait for me (wait for me)
Wait for me
Wait for me (wait for me)

Mexico, I have never been there
Nor Brazil, I feel safe and warm up on this hill
Sometimes I wish we could up and fly away
Well don’t get me wrong
I’m happy here cocooned within our home
Northern lights,
See the colours swirl and spin
No not me, I’ll just hide amongst the leaves and trees
I love the snow
Its molecules the way ice crystals grow
But I hate the cold
I’m happy here cocooned within our home
Tokyo, robots and Mt. Fuji
Sakura, cherry blossoms filling up the streets
New York lights
Buildings so tall they almost touch the sky
One day we will up and fly away
Mexico, I have never been there

Will You Still

Will you still love me
When I’m gone?
Will you have strength to carry on
And on and on?
Will you still love me
Come rain, come shine?
Will I be circlin’ around your heart
And still on your mind?
You know I’m jokin’
I’m just a fool
I’m always falling over you, over you
Will you still love me
Like we love the rain?
Fallin’ soft upon the roof
And down the lane
Will you still love me
Like we love the sunsets?
The colours and the sky
No, don’t forget me, don’t forget me, don’t forget

Got no new clothes
Ain’t changed my hair
By bed’s unmade
I just don’t care
No new tattoos
Or fancy bling
Don’t clean the house
Do anything
It’s not how I step up to greet them
The smile on my face when I meet them
There’s something within I can’t see
Since I slept with you
Everybody wants to sleep with me
Everybody wants to sleep with me
You opened me up
Like a flower in spring
The bees all buzz
And the birds all sing
They sing a sweet, soft, pretty tune
Verlaine, Debussy
Clair de Lune
It’s not how I step up to greet them
The smile on my face when I meet them
There’s something within I can’t see
Since I slept with you
Everybody wants to sleep with me
Everybody wants to sleep with me
Everybody wants to sleep with me
Everybody wants to sleep with me

In and Out of the Light
by The Apartments
This record is compelling, a slow burner, I find myself playing a lot of Peter Milton Walsh's records on repeat, this is no exception.

A Small Death
by Samantha Crain
No-one should be allowed to sing so beautifully. It’s simply not fair. "An Echo" draws you in to this varied collection of the the lighter and darker moments of her songs.

***Coldwater DFU
by Mick Thomas
I had to stop the car when I heard “Anything You Recognise” for the first time. I love this track ~ I love a great narrative.
